FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

While the 1300 has roots in running shoe design, they are best suited for everyday wear and casual activities rather than high-performance athletic running.

How do I determine my correct UK size?

Refer to the New Balance sizing chart, typically available on their official website or retailer product pages, to match your foot measurement to the correct UK size.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the materials, especially the suede and the sole unit. Hand washing is the preferred method.

What is the difference between the 'Made in USA' and other versions?

'Made in USA' signifies a higher standard of craftsmanship and material sourcing, often resulting in superior durability and quality compared to other manufacturing origins.

How should I store my New Balance 1300 trainers?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape. Avoid storing them in plastic bags, which can trap moisture.

Is the sizing unisex?

Yes, while listed as unisex in some attributes, ensure you select the appropriate adult UK size. The fit is designed to be versatile for both men and women.

Troubleshooting

Tight fit on arrival

Wear the trainers for short periods initially to allow them to break in and conform to your foot shape. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in period if needed.

Suede appears discolored or dirty

Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap of the suede. For stubborn marks, consult specific suede cleaning products and follow their instructions carefully.

Sole feels less supportive over time

Ensure the ENCAP sole unit is free from debris. If the cushioning has significantly degraded, it may be time to consider replacement, as the integrated sole unit cannot be serviced.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for unisex adult wear and pair well with casual attire such as jeans, shorts, and athleisure wear.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning Suede: Use a suede brush to remove loose dirt and dust. For tougher stains, a suede cleaner can be applied sparingly with a cloth, followed by brushing.
  2. Cleaning Mesh: A damp cloth or a soft brush with mild soap and water can be used to clean the mesh areas. Avoid soaking the shoes.

  4. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not machine dry.
